Alternative Energy Resources

At 02:00 it was time to meet at school, say goodbye and start to journey home. Some of the students hadn't slept at all and were rather tired.

It was difficult to say goodbye and most of the Icelandic students wanted to stay longer.

The next 24 hours were all about travelling and trying to get some rest at airports and in airplanes. The pictures show the journey home.

After 24 hours we finally arrived home. All of us were very tired and we were looking forward for a good night sleep.

Today we came to school at nine o´clock.  We started to work in five mixed groups.  Every group needed to write five questions about energy sources and Lithuania and Iceland. We made a quiz and the other groups answered.   For the answers we got a prize, Lithuanian chocolate. 

After that we gave presentations about how people are going to use energy in the future and what kind of energy. 

Then we ate lunch at school.  The food was very good, we had salmon.  After lunch each group had to write a short summary about what we have been doing here in Lithuania. 

At half past two was an entertainment program at the auditorium prepared by Lithuanian students. The principal of the school came and gave us certificates for our work with the Lithuanian students.  Then we got some free time. 

Labas!

Today we came to school at eight o‘clock and from there we went on a long trip.  First we went to a garbage dump witch was very disgusting and the smell of it was really bad, but we learned a lot about the importance of recycling. 

The next place we went to was a farm where we looked at a wind mill, which was very interesting.  Some of us have never seen a real windmill before. 

On our way to the next destination the driver did not know the way and got lost but that was okay because in the end we found our way. We visited a place that produces electricity from solar cells and saw a solar cell and learned a lot about it, which was very interesting. 

Today started like any other day. We went to school at 9 o‘clock. When everyone had arrived we went to the University by foot. 

At the science department of the University we got a lecture about hydrogen and it benefits as an energy resource. At the lecture we saw how water is

electrolyzed to hydrogen and oxygen.  At the lecture we got to try a special bike which when we peddled it we created energy. We also gat to look around at the science stuff at the University e.g. we saw the colour scale of hydrogen. 

After we had seen the University we had some free time to go and get  something to eat and have a closer look at the town.

We arrived to school at 13.30 started to finish our project from the day before. We created a car out of rubbish.

When we had done that we went by bus to the Hill Of Crosses. That was really amazing. You should have seen all those crosses they are not hundred, not thousands, but millions. It was really amazing.
